@nightstalker160 : Did that list you gave not include 2 majors NOT offered in the business school which suggests that there are other routes to various business careers? Also, finance is not the only business career. The point still stands that you do not need a BBA to get involved in business. In addition, even if one wants to pursue an MBA, there are many routes to that where a BBA is hardly necessary as a pre-cursor. I am not going to agree that the BBA is supreme even if it is the majority. A double major with it, I support, but I don’t know if I support single BBA majors when there are many other types of skills (skills often not as emphasized in certain BBA concentrations like serious writing and undergraduate research…independent research at that) to be gained in other departments usually belonging to arts and letters units. BBAs make certain things easier/more streamlined, especially at a place like Emory’s GBS, but adding (or even pursuing in lieu of) certain other majors could add an even broader skill-set that leads to more flexibility in post-grad. options.
It appears that these entry level positions you speak of look for strong quantitative skills (notice the two BBA concentrations you mentioned were accounting and finance which I also mentioned), which can be attained through various means including those 4 majors. Also, given the trend at MIT, seems some top finance firms like engineering majors. The key appears to be “majors in something that screams excellent quantitative skills” which I emphasized as the key to success in many hot fields in my post.
